The Velvet Queen of Aroids

Meet the legendary Anthurium Warocqueanum, the undisputed Queen of the collector world. Renowned for its dramatic, dark green, velvety leaves that can grow to astonishing lengths, this plant is a breathtaking centrepiece. The foliage feels like crushed velvet, with crystalline silver veins that shimmer in the light. This is not a beginner's houseplant; it's a rewarding project for the dedicated aroid enthusiast who is ready for a challenge. The Queen demands specific conditions, particularly high humidity, making it a perfect candidate for a greenhouse cabinet or a carefully controlled indoor environment. Grown right here in the EU with love, this young plant is your chance to raise royalty.

Why You'll Love It

  • Unmatched Foliage: Experience the iconic, elongated leaves with a deep velvet texture and striking silver venation that defines a high-end collection.
  • A Rewarding Challenge: Successfully growing a Warocqueanum is a true badge of honour for any plant collector, offering immense satisfaction as it unfurls each new, majestic leaf.
  • Statement Piece: Even as a juvenile plant, its unique texture and form command attention and signal a sophisticated taste in botanicals.
  • Collector's Classic: Owning a Queen Anthurium is a rite of passage for many serious aroid collectors; it's a living work of art with enduring appeal.

Care Essentials

Light: Provide very bright, indirect light. An east-facing window or a spot a metre or two back from a south or west-facing window is ideal. It must be protected from direct sun, which will scorch the delicate leaves. Insufficient light will result in slow growth and smaller leaves.

Water: This is critical. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of the substrate feels dry to the touch. It must never sit in water, as its fine roots are highly susceptible to rot. When in doubt, it's better to wait another day. During winter, reduce watering frequency as growth slows.

Soil/Substrate: A super chunky, airy, well-draining aroid mix is non-negotiable. Our aroid substrate mix is perfect, or you can create your own using a blend of orchid bark, perlite, coco chunks, and charcoal to ensure maximum oxygen at the roots.

Humidity & Airflow: The Queen demands high humidity, consistently above 70%. This is best achieved in a greenhouse cabinet, a terrarium, or with a powerful humidifier running nearby. It also appreciates gentle airflow to prevent fungal issues, so avoid completely stagnant air.

Pet Safety

Important: Like other members of the Araceae family, Anthurium Warocqueanum is toxic to cats, dogs, and humans if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals which can cause irritation and swelling. Please place it safely out of reach of curious pets and children.

Common Issues

  • Crispy Leaf Edges/Tips: The most common issue, almost always caused by insufficient humidity.
  • Yellowing Leaves: Can be a sign of overwatering (check the roots for rot), or simply the plant shedding an older leaf to focus energy on new growth, which is common during acclimation.
  • Brown Spots on Leaves: Could be a bacterial/fungal issue from water sitting on the leaves in a low-airflow environment, or sometimes from sunburn.
  • Stunted Growth: Usually a result of inadequate light, low humidity, or being kept in a substrate that is too dense and wet.

Botanical Background

Native to the warm, wet, tropical rainforests of Colombia, Anthurium warocqueanum grows as an epiphyte on the trunks of trees. Understanding its natural habitat is key to its care: it's used to dappled light filtering through the canopy, high humidity, frequent rainfall, and having its roots exposed to plenty of air. Replicating these conditions is the path to success. The common name "Queen Anthurium" is a nod to its regal and demanding presence, a fitting title for such a spectacular species.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are the leaves on my new Anthurium warocqueanum turning yellow or crispy?
This is very common. The Queen Anthurium is famously sensitive to changes in environment and shipping stress. Yellowing can indicate overwatering or the plant resorbing energy from an older leaf to acclimate. Crispy edges almost always point to low humidity. Upon arrival, place it in a high-humidity (70%+) location with gentle airflow and bright, indirect light, and be very careful not to overwater as it settles in. Expect a period of adjustment.

Does Anthurium warocqueanum need a greenhouse or cabinet to thrive?
While not strictly mandatory, it is highly recommended. The Queen requires consistent high humidity (ideally 70%+) that is difficult to maintain in a typical European living room, especially with central heating in winter. A greenhouse cabinet, terrarium, or a dedicated room with a humidifier will give you the best chance of success and help it produce those magnificent, long leaves. It is not a suitable plant for average room humidity.

The title says 'XL', but the pot size seems small. Is this a mature plant?
This 'XL' refers to the genetic potential of the plant, not its current size. You are purchasing a healthy, established juvenile Anthurium warocqueanum. These plants are slow growers, and starting with a strong young plant allows you to acclimate it to your specific conditions from an early stage, which is often more successful than introducing a large, mature specimen. It has the potential to grow spectacular, metre-long leaves with proper care over time.

Pages are a little thin but nice Bible.
Format: Leather Bound
This Bible is a great option for someone with good eyesight, as the print is on the smaller side. I personally prefer larger print, but the smaller text does make it more compact and convenient to carry. I got this for my daughter in college, and it’s perfect for her since she likes to take notes during sermons. The leather cover is very nice and adds a quality feel. I do wish the pages were a bit thicker, as there is some show-through from writing on the other side—something to keep in mind for a journaling Bible. Overall, it’s a nice, basic option for jotting down notes and reflections.

Great for my expectations!
This is not the Bible that I read from during my daily quiet time, nor the Bible that I take to worship with me at church - but also not my originial intentions, which was to have a small compact (but complete) Bible to have with me at all times. It is small and lightweight, and easy to carry in my purse; available any time I need to reference it.

Beautifully Made
Format: Leather Bound
This Bible is absolutely beautiful and feels very high quality. The natural brown leather has a classic, timeless look, and the flap with the strap closure is a really nice touch that makes it feel both elegant and practical. It keeps everything protected and gives it a unique design compared to standard Bibles. The journaling layout is one of my favorite parts. The margins are wide enough for notes, reflections, prayers, and study thoughts without making the pages feel too crowded. The paper is fairly thin, as expected with most Bibles, but I was pleasantly surprised that there was minimal bleed-through when using pens that aren’t overly heavy. It’s been great for both personal study and devotional time. Overall, this is a gorgeous journaling Bible that feels thoughtfully made. It would make a wonderful personal Bible or a meaningful gift for someone who enjoys note-taking, Bible study, or journaling alongside Scripture.

Not quite premium, but a very nice Bible
Format: Leather Bound, Format: Leather Bound
I’m a Bible snob and I have a few issues with this Bible, but it’s currently listed at around $77 on sale and many of my Bibles are $150+ so I’ve still given it 5 stars as it is a nice Bible and very reasonable quality for the price. If it’s what you are looking for, I would not hesitate to recommend it. My issues: Page thickness and opacity. The pages (especially for a journaling Bible) could be a tad thicker and more opaque. That being said, certainly not the worst I’ve seen and they are passable. The paper does have a really nice softness, that’s almost cotton feeling (and less tissue paper feeling) - which I do like. No line matching. Many premium quality Bibles will line match the text on the front and back of the page to limit the distraction of text that shows through the pages. This Bible is definitely not line matched. The cover design is not overly practical for travel. The leather strap is meant to be tied in a knot. There is also a bump on the back where the pen holding elastic is installed inside the cover. Both of these feel like they will easily catch and cause uneven wear if you plan to carry it in a book bag with other flat things. Things I like: The pages feel nice. Having a real leather cover does feel nicer than a flimsy cover It lays really nice. The text is small but the layout is compact and clean looking. The limited footnotes are a mix of translation notes, contextual notes (like measurement conversions), and references. They are very brief and limited notes, but I like the hybrid of information. The ESV translation, while not my favorite as it tends to be a little more evangelical, is a very solid translation and used by many churches. Overall it’s a nice Bible and I could easily see it being a companion in someone’s faith journey for many years to come with a leather cover that will age beautifully and space to keep notes and thoughts along the way.

Useful Bible for Taking Notes or Writing Out Prayers in Response All in an Attractive Format
Format: Leather Bound
First off, I won’t be reviewing and evaluating “the Bible”, because the Bible is supposed to evaluate you, confront you, call you, and claim you for God. So, whether you read this edition or another, let God’s Word teach, woo, and draw you to Him! As for this edition of the ESV, as some have noted, the font is on the smaller size, but still readable for most (your results may vary!). As it is a journaling Bible, on each page is a wide lined section for you to take study notes or sermon notes, make comments, write out prayers in response or whatever use you want to make of it. If you are new to God’s Word, the publishers have included some helps in the introductory matter, including a page on ‘Why Read the Bible?’ and several pages on ‘What the Bible says about...’, covering various topics and where to find them in Scripture. There are introductions for both the Old Testament and the New Testament. And after the end of the Scripture texts (Revelation), the publishers have also included some helpful resources like, ‘God’s Plan to Save You’, ‘Introductions to each book of the Bible’ and a plan to read through the Bible in a year. The leather has a very nice feel to it and (I hope) will wear and age well. The strap is new for me, but it was pretty easy to use to keep the Bible closed. (Maybe it’s just me, but it’s a little odd having such a long strap hang while I’m reading it!). There is also a leather loop inside to keep a pen handy for your note taking and journaling. By the way, the size is a little unique, as it is almost square, so it might be an awkward carry, and I would guess for women that it might only fit in a really large purse. Overall, if you want a Bible to use for more in-depth study and to take notes on what you find, this might be a good choice for you.
